Sponsor Visits

At Hope & Serenity Farm Sanctuary, your sponsorship plays a crucial role in the lives of our animals. Your support provides essential resources for their care, including food, shelter, and medical attention. Through sponsorship, our animals receive the support they need to thrive in a safe and loving environment. You contribution truly makes a difference in their lives!

Come by the farm by scheduling a visit below to spend time with your chosen sponsored animal or get to know some new faces! We want your animal to know you and your love and attention is so important to the happiness of our animals.

Don’t forget!
